APPEAL MADE TO CITIZENS
DEMOCRAT RATHER "RED"
"WASHI.VGTOX June 5. Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of l,iibor. declared in a
formal fetatetucnt today that a war
between the United States and Mex-U-o
would result if the recommenda
tions of the-eenate committee which
investigated Mexican affairs were
carried out- 1
"The report of the senate sub-com-mltteo
investigating - conditions in
Mexico under the chairmanship of
Senator A. B, Fall," Mr.Gompers said,
"amounts to a declaration that unless
the Mexican government rewrites its
constitution in accord with the idea
of the American oil and mining inter
ests, the government of the United
States will intervene In Mexico,
llterfor Motives Charged..
"The report of Senator Kali's com
mittco demands-a number of specified
changes in the Mexican constitution.
These changes would be the consum
raatlon of What has ' long been the
hopes of the great oil and mining in
terests, as well as the land timber
interests, which have fomented the
bitterness between the people of the
United States and Mexico.
"In uorne tnlnor particulars recom
mendations made by Senator Fall's
committee may be acceptable, but the
heart of tli-e report can only be de
scribed as .vicious. The report de
mands that unless the Mexican con
stitution is altered as recommended,
the government of the United States
'send a police force, consisting of the
naval and military forces of our gov
ernment, into the republic of Mexico
to open and maintain open every line
of communication between" the City
ot Mexico and every seaport and bor
der port in Mexico.
Hrport Called Vicious. '
"Of course, this amounts to policing
practically the. .whole of the country.
Those who know Mexico and the
Mexican pe.ple understand fully that
such actloh would mean war between
the two countries.
"The report of Senator Fall's com
mittee, therefore, is a report which
recommends a course leading direct
to war with Mexico. This has long
been desired by American interests
engaged in the exploitation of the
national wealth of Mexico.
"Adoption .by the senate of this re
port would constitute the adoption of
a foreign -policy completely at vari
ance with the established policy and
traditions of our republic. Such a
course as recommended by the report
of Senator Fall's committee must be
opposed by every justice and freedom
loving American and will beyond
question be unreservedly condemned
by the working people of our country
and the great masses of our people
generally.
Condition Held Vntenable.
It Is difficult to believe that the
Senate will give serious consideration
to a report so out of harmony with
the best thought of our time, and so
full of the possibilities of dire conse
quence to our people and our rtation
as well as to a neighbor republic with
wnicti we are at peace.
"The report calls for American aid
to Mexico providing Mexico agrees to
the terms of the report. This is not
an American proposition. It i.
Prussian proposition. It must be set
aside by the popular opinion and fair
judgment of our people."

Definite statements of anticipated
June stocks were not given by rep
resentatives of the gasoline com
panies, although It is understood that
the Standard Oil company has but
500,000 gallons in storage, which is
being alloted to outside communities
as quickly as tank cars can be obtained.
The Associated Oil company has
90,000 gallons on hand, according to
A. D. Parker, district manager. About
340.000 gallons additional are ex
pected prior to June 30.
The placement of the tank steamer
Herrin, used by the Associated com
pany to Carry gasoline to Oregon, on
the drydock for inspection has robbed
Portland of one cargo of gasoline in
June.- amounting to approximately
170,000 gallons.
Under the restriction Imposed to
day, the Union Oil company of Cali
fornia will be able to conserve for
use during the convention period not
to exceed 80,000 gallons. The Shell
Oil company, according to J. C. Storey,
Oregon manager, will be able to con
serve between 30,000 and 40,000 gal
lons for convention weeks.
Estimates made by the oil com
pany managers indicate that through
restriction of sales and voluntary
stoppage of waste, a. total of about
420.000 gallons can be taken from
Portland stocks and utilized for con
vention needs. These needs have
been estimated as high as 1,250,000
gallons, but due to the shortage which
is coast wide, it is certain that thou
sands of automobiles which would
have been driven to the coast had
the situation been normal, will be left
at home.
Suggestion was made frequently at
the meeting to eliminate the use of
pleasure vehicles in Portland imme
diately by refusal of sale of any gaso
line, but it was believed by the ma
jority of those present, that appeal
would result in the voluntary stop
ping of use of automobiles for plea

SALEM ATJTO DEALERS MEET
Reduction of Tsc of Pleasure Cars
Decided Upon.
SALEM, Or., -June 3. (Special.)
Owners of pleasure automobiles in
Salem and vicinity must reduce their
gasoline demands one-half In the
event the industries which operate by
means of this fuel are to continue, ac
cording to statements made at a
meeting of the Salem Automobile
Dealers' association held here today.
Besides the dealers the session was
attended by representatives of all th
oil companies operating In Salem.
The normal consumption of gasoline
in the Salem territory is estimated at
12,000 gallons a day. but it is not be
lieved by dealers that more than 2000
gallons of the product will be avail
able for pleasure cars during the re
mainder of June.
Several dealers expressed the belief
that gasoline for joy riding should be
absolutely refused and that the deal
ers strictly should guard against
allowing their customers to hoard

llOSEBURG, Or., June 3. (Special.)
Highway construction work in this
county has been hard hit by the gaso
line shortage and tonight practically
100 motor trucks will be compelled to
cease operations. These machines
re used by contractors engaged in
paving and grading, doing a great
deal of the heavy hauling connected
with construction work at Rice hill,
Dillard and other points. As a rule,
the trucks are owned by individuals,
but a few sub-contractors own
fleets.
Contractors are in a quandary, as
they feel that if shortage compels a
general shutdown they will not be
able . to get their crews together
gain for resuming work and, on the
other hand, they cannot keep wages
going in order to hold the men on the
job. Trucks doing a general hauling
business operating out of this city
also are forced into the idle class.

leasure driving will be stopped ere
the present shortage has been elimi
nated.
Lack of time before the conven
tions eliminated the suggestion that
card system be adopted for the
rationing of gasoline. Although it
was admitted that persons desiring to
obtain more gasoline than they are
ntitled to, can find means of doing
so, it was also pointed out that the
average automobile owner has suffi
cient civic pride and interest in the
continuation of agriculture activities
and industry throughout the state.
that little repeating or illegal stor
age of gasoline is likely to take
place.
If automobile owners devise
means to gain more gasoline than
they are entitled to," said M. A.
Wilkins, president of the Automobiles
Dealers' association, "they should re
member that they are only injuring
themselves by using gasoline which
should go to agriculture districts and
ndustrles, or which 'should be con
served to care for the visitors who
will be here during the latter part
of the month."
Mayor Baker explained that the
conventions, which will bring be
tween 50,000 and 75,000 visitors to
Portland are in no way pleasure
events.
Several hundred thousand dollars
have been spent to induce men from
all parts of the United States and
Canada to visit Oregon and when
they come they have been told they
will be shown the advantages of our
state. . It Is a business, pure and
simple, to sell Oregon to the east. It
is an opportunity which Portland and
Oregon will not have again for years
and every Portland resident should be
glad to forgo anything within reason
to assure a sufficient supply of gaso
line to oare for the convention needs.'
Telegrams Iteack Governor.
Seriousness of the situation
throughout the state was brought
vividly before the meeting by Don
Lpjohn. secretary to Governor Olcott
who said that the state executive's
offlc was flooded with telegrams
from all parts of the state telling of
me acute gasoline shortage.
"Most distressing of all." said Mr.
Upjohn, "is the present condition in
many towns not on railroads. Such
towns depend entirely on" automobile
transportation for the necessities of
life and these people are faced with
an actual food shortaare."
Telegrams read at the meeting indl
cats that Roceburg is without gaso
line, xnsumcient is on hand in The
Dalles to supply trackers; milking
macnines nave been stopped through
lack oi gasoline In Astoria and Clat
sop county, and farming operations
in Umatilla county are seriously
nanaicappea.
Investigation by Deputy City At
torney Myers, at the direction of
Mayor Baker, reveals a general short
age in California and in the greater
part of Washington. Telegrams from
Butte. Montana and Denver, Colo., In
dicate no gasoline shortage, which is
explained by company representa
tlves because of the smaller marke
as well as the fact that these points
ar furnished from markets which
the coast points cannot draw from be
cause of prohibitive freight rates.
A committee composed of Georg
Quayle, representing the Oregon Stat
Chamber of Commerce; William F.
McKinney, president of the Oregon
State Motor association; - Marshall
Dana, president of the presidents'
council, and O. M. Wilkins, president
of the Automobile Dealers' associa
tion, was appointed by Mayor Baker
to investigate the situation outBlde
of Portland and devise any and all
means possible to furnish gasoline to
such points and thus prevent Inter
ference with agriculture activities.
Excellent liesults Expected.
Inasmuch as the - oil companies
have agreed to follow all suggestions
made by the conservation committee,
it is. believed that excellent results
will obtain from the work of the main
committee and the sub-committees.
William F. McKinney, Will J.

VANCOUVER SUPPLY CUT
GASOLINE CONSERVED FOR
BIG INDUSTRIES AND TRUCKS,
Well Driller Finds Unguarded
Tank of Distillate Drained;
Touring Cars Still.
VANCOUVER. Wash., June 3.
(Special.) The gasoline shortage to
day is worse than yesterday, as th
supplying companies cut the svpply
from 20 per cent of normal to 10 per
cent at noon today. There is hope,
however, that the supply will get back
to normal again about September 1
according to G. A. Cusick, local rep.
resentative of the Stanuard Oil com'
pany.
He said today that the shortage is
caused by consumption increasing at
a greater rate than production. Con
sumption has Increased about 60 per
cent while production has Increased
about 20 per cent. Gasoline is being
denied touring cars of every kind and
tru.ks are given only their daily ra
tion of gasoline.
However, the Standard Oil company
is taking care of the big industries,
s-.ch as the G. M. Standifer Construc
tion corporation, shipbuilders and en
gineers, the Willapa Lumber com
pany, the United Contracting com
pany paving roads in this county, th
Puget Sound Engineering company,
and several others, including saw
mills in outlying districts.
A local well driller left a tank of
40 gallons of distillate on the Sluman
farm near here and when he went to
get it yesterday found that others had
drained the tank.
Portland motorists ar called upon
to conserve gasoline to the limit
during the next two weeks in order
that adaitional allotment can be
given for commercial an.d agricultural
needs for the purpose of providing
sufficient gasoline to care for con
vention needs this month. The ap
peal is made by Mayor Baker, chair
man of the gasoline conservation
committee.
The -Shrine general committee, in
session yesterday, went on record as
ready to co-operate with the oil
companies, date, county and city
officials and business men who are
attempting to keep the wheels of
Industry and food production moving
by conservation of gasoline in Port-
and.
Mayor Isaacs Statement.
"As mayor and chairman of the
committee on gasoline conservation
it becomes my duty to call to public
p.t'enlion the situation regarding th
gasoline supply, the impending dan
gers thereof, and the methods of re
lief." reads the mayor's statement.
"Investigation shows a most serious
shortage extending throughout coast
states, due apparently to production
on a basis lees than the increase in
consumption. Whatever the cause
may be, the shortage exists and will
continue to exist for a period of
about 10 weeks, according to the
best Information obtainable.
"Portland now is seeking only its
rightful share of gasoline and is not
necking and will not seek any of the
supply allotted to other parts of the
state, as the outside supply is ex
tremely essential, being Intended for
tractors, farm implements and ma
chinery used in food production. It
's to the best interests of the state
and the people that this allocation
should be increased rather than de
creased and therefore no effort will
be made as far as this committee is
concerned to get any of this supply.
To curtail the supply to machinery
used In food production and essential
industry would eventually result in
unprecedented Increase in food prices
and everything should be done to pre
vent this, even to the discontinuance
of pleasure cars altogether.
"Portland within the last year has
Invited three great conventions to
meet here in June, which will bring
thousands of visitors to the city. They
have been promised the best of en
tertainment. The position of this
commiittee is that use of gasoline
for this purpose is not Strictly for
pleasure, but is a duty th city owes
and indirectly is a strictly business
proDosltion.
There is but one way of relieving
the shortage and that is by conser
vatlon. For the good of Portland
which has the visitors to entertain
and for the relief of commercial en
terprlses requiring gasoline to main
tain their operations, which mean
everything to the people of Portland,
every owner of a motor car is urged
to do his utmost to conserve tne gaso
line supply allotted to Portland.
Hints Given Saving.
This may be done by drivers leav
ing their cars at home unless abso
lutely needed; by not allowing en
gines to run idle; by not attempting
to obtain more gasoline than the al
lottment made by the gasoline com
panies to the various types of cars
and generally by using gasoline only
where absolutely and positively
necessary.
By every motorist living up to this
plan Portland will help to get by the
10 weeks' shortage and have gaaoline
for Industry and for the conventions,
Every motorist not following . this
plan, which is intended for genera
application in Portland, is adding his
bit to the failure of Portland to
properly entertain its convention
visitors and to the city a failure to
keep essential industry operating at
the speed necessary to keep living
costs within bonds, and keep factories
from closing and thereby causing unemployment."
On a motion by Mayor Baker, sec
onded by J. A. Cranston, chairman of
the Shrine traffic committee, the gen
eral committee of the 1920 Shrine
went on record In a resolution adopt
ed, championing to the limit the plan
of oil companies, city officials and
business men of Portland so to ra
tion gasoline allocated to Portland,
so as to, first, care for essential in
dustries and food production of th
state, and second, to conserve enough
out of Portland's allottment to car
for the national conventions coming
to Portland and Oregon this month.
